mance specifications described in the operation manuals.
Before using the Temperature Controller under conditions which are not
described in the manual or applying the Temperature Controller to nuclear
control systems, railroad systems, aviation systems, vehicles, combustion
systems, medical equipment, amusement machines, safety equipment, and
other systems, machines, and equipment that may have a serious influence
on lives and property if used improperly, consult your OMRON representative.
Make sure that the ratings and performance characteristics of the Tempera-
ture Controller are sufficient for the systems, machines, and equipment, and
be sure to provide the systems, machines, and equipment with double safety
mechanisms.
This manual provides information for installing and operating OMRON Tem-
perature Controllers. Be sure to read this manual before operation and keep
this manual close at hand for reference during operation.
!WARNING It is extremely important that a Temperature Controller be used for the speci-
fied purpose and under the specified conditions, especially in applications that
can directly or indirectly affect human life. You must consult with your OMRON
representative before applying a Temperature Controller to the above men-
tioned applications.
3 Application Precautions
!WARNING Do not touch the terminals while the power is ON. Doing so may cause an
electric shock.
!WARNING It may be necessary to install a power supply breaker to turn OFF the power
supply before working on the Temperature Controller. Not turning OFF the
power supply may result in electrical shock.
!WARNING Do not allow metal fragments or lead wire scraps to fall inside this Tempera-
ture Controller. These may cause electric shock, fire, or malfunction.
!WARNING Do not use the Temperature Controller in flammable and explosive gas atmo-
spheres. There is danger of explosion.
!WARNING Never disassemble, repair, or modify the Temperature Controller. Doing so

may cause electric shock, fire or malfunction.
!Caution Set all settings according to the control target of the Temperature Controller. If
the settings are not appropriate for the control target, the Temperature Con-
troller may operate in an unexpected manner, resulting in damage to the Tem-
perature Controller or resulting in accidents.
xiv
Application Precautions 3
!Caution Tighten the terminal screws properly. Tighten them to a torque of 0.40 to
0.56 N·m.
!WARNING To maintain safety in the event of a Temperature Controller malfunction,

always take appropriate safety measures, such as installing an alarm on a
separate line to prevent excessive temperature rise. If a malfunction prevents
proper control, a major accident may result.
Observe the following precautions when using the Temperature Controller.

• Use and store the Temperature Controller within the specified tempera-
ture and humidity ranges. If the Temperature Controller is installed incor-
rectly, heat will build up inside, shortening the life of the Temperature
Controller. If heat buildup is a problem, used forced cooling, e.g., install a
cooling fan.
• Do not touch the patterns or components on a board with your bare
hands. Hold it by the case.
• To allow heat to escape, do not block the area around the Temperature
Controller. (Ensure that enough space is left for the heat to escape.) Do
not block the ventilation holes on the casing.
• Use the Temperature Controller within the specified power supply voltage
and rated load ranges.
• Wire properly using the correct terminal polarity.
• Use the specified size of solderless terminals for wiring (M3, width 5.8
mm or less).
• Use the specified wire sizes for wiring. Power supply terminals: AWG22 to
AWG14 (cross-sectional area of 0.326 to 2.081 mm2), Other terminals:
AWG28 to AWG16 (cross-sectional area of 0.081 to 1.309 mm2), Length
of exposed wire: 6 to 8 mm.
• Do not wire unused terminals.
• Make sure that the rated voltage is reached within 2 seconds after the
power supply is turned ON.
• Allow a warmup period of 30 minutes.
• Attach a surge suppressor or noise filter to peripheral devices that gener-
ate noise (in particular, motors, transformers, solenoids, magnetic coils or
other equipment that have an inductance component). When mounting a
noise filter on the power supply, be sure to first check the filter's voltage
and current capacity, and then mount the filter as close as possible to the
E5CN. Allow as much space as possible between the Temperature Con-
troller and devices that generate powerful high-frequency noise (e.g.,
high-frequency welders, high-frequency sewing machines) or surges.
• To reduce induction noise, separate the high-voltage or large-current
power lines from other lines, and avoid parallel or common wiring with the
power lines when you are wiring to the terminals. We recommend using
separating pipes, ducts, or shielded lines.
• Install a switch or circuit breaker in a location easily accessible to the
operator and label it appropriately.
• Do not use this Temperature Controller in the following places:
• Places subject to dust or corrosive gases (in particular, sulfide gas and
ammonia gas)
• Places subject to high humidity, condensation or freezing
• Places subject to direct sunlight
• Places subject to vibration and large shocks
• Places subject to splashing liquid or oily atmosphere
xv
Application Precautions 3
• Places directly subject to heat radiated from heating equipment

• Places subject to intense temperature changes
• Cleaning: Do not use paint thinner or the equivalent. Use standard grade
alcohol to clean the Temperature Controller.
• Install DIN track vertically.
• When mounting the Terminal Unit to the Temperature Controller, make
sure that the hooks on the Temperature Controller are inserted properly
into the Terminal Unit.
• Remove the dust sticker from the Temperature Controller after completing
wiring to enable heat radiation.
• When you draw out the internal mechanism from the housing, never
touch electric components inside or subject the internal mechanism to
shock.

1-2-2 Main Functions
Communications Communications according to CompoWay/F (See note.) are supported and

Functions are performed through the RS-485 interface.
Up to 16 E5ZN Temperature Controllers can be operated from the host.
Note CompoWay/F is a general-purpose serial communications-based unified communica-
tions protocol developed by OMRON. CompoWay/F uses commands compatible with
the well-established FINS, together with a unified frame format on OMRON program-
mable Controllers to facilitate communications between personal computers and com-
ponents.
Number of Control One E5ZN Temperature Controller has two channels for controlling tempera-
Points ture.
Input Sensor Types The following input sensors can be connected for temperature input. Both
channels will use the same type of sensor.
Thermocouple: K, J, T, E, L, U, N, R, S, B
Infrared temperature sensor type: ES1A
K (10 to 70°C), K (60 to 120°C), K
(115 to 165°C), K (160 to 260°C)
Platinum resistance thermometer: Pt100, JPt100
Analog input: 0 to 50 mV
Control Output The control output is either a voltage pulse output or a transistor (open-collec-
tor) output, depending on the model of E5ZN.
Alarms • Set the alarm type and alarm value, or set upper- and lower-limit alarms.
• If necessary, a more comprehensive alarm function can be achieved by
setting the “standby sequence,” “alarm hysteresis,” and “close for alarm/
open for alarm,” parameters.
Control Adjustment Optimum PID constants can be set easily by autotuning.
Event Input • The following functions can be achieved using the event input (one input
per Temperature Controller): Set point selection (multi-SP, 2 points max.)
and RUN/STOP.
• The event input is used by both temperature control channels.
HBA A heater burnout alarm (HBA) is supported.

Installation Precautions Section 2-3
2-3 Installation Precautions

2-3-1 Ensuring Prolonged Use
Use the Temperature Controller in the following operating environment:
Temperature: -10 to +55°C (with no icing or condensation)
Humidity: 25% to 85%
When the Temperature Controller is incorporated in a control panel, make
sure that the Controller's ambient temperature (not the panel's ambient tem-
perature) does not exceed 55°C.
The life of electronic equipment like Temperature Controllers is influenced not
only by the life determined by the relay switching count but also by the life of
internal electronic components. The service life of components is dependent
on the ambient temperature: The higher the ambient temperature becomes,
the shorter the service life becomes, and vice versa. For this reason, the ser-
vice life of the Temperature Controller can be extended by lowering its internal
temperature.
Mounting Temperature Controllers in any way other than the specified mount-
ing method may cause heat to build up inside the Temperature Controllers,
which will shorten their service life. When mounting Temperature Controllers
like this, forced cooling measures, such as a cooling fan for cooling the Tem-
perature Controllers, must be taken into consideration.
Be sure that the cooling method in not cooling just the terminal block. If only
the terminal block is cooled, measurement errors may occur.
2-3-2 Reducing the Influence of Noise

To reduce inductive noise, the leads on the Temperature Controller's terminal
block must be wired separately from high-voltage/high-current power lines.
Also, avoid wiring lines in parallel with or in the same wiring path as power
lines. Other methods, such as separating conduits and wiring ducts or using
shielded cables, are also effective.
Attach a surge absorber or noise filter to peripheral equipment that generates
noise (in particular, motors, transformers, solenoids, or other equipment that
has a magnetic coil or other inductance component).
When a noise filter is used at the power supply, first check the voltage or cur-
rent, and attach the noise filter as close as possible to the Temperature Con-
troller.
Also, install the Temperature Controller as far away as possible from equip-
ment that generates strong, high frequencies (e.g., high-frequency welders or
high-frequency sewing machines) or surges.
2-3-3 Ensuring Precise Measurements

When the thermocouple leads are extended, be sure to use a compensating
lead wire matched to the type of thermocouple.
When the platinum resistance detector leads are extended, use a lead having
the smallest resistance to equalize the resistance of the three leads.
Mount to DIN track that has been installed vertical to the ground.
If there is a large error in the measurement values, make sure that input com-
pensation has been set correctly.

Selecting PID Control or ON/OFF Control Section 3-3
3-3 Selecting PID Control or ON/OFF Control

Either 2-PID control (PID control with two degrees of freedom) or ON/OFF
control can be selected. The control method is selected by using host commu-
nications or the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit to change the “PID/OnOff”
parameter. Set the control method for channels 1 and 2 separately. Default is
for PID control.
2-PID Control For PID control, the “proportional band (P),” “integral time (I),” and “derivative
time (D)” parameters must be set.
These PID constants can be set by autotuning or manual setup.
ON/OFF Control In ON/OFF control, the control output is turned ON when the process value is
lower than the current set point, and the control output is turned OFF when
the process value is higher than the current set point (for reverse operation).
24
Setting Output Specifications Section 3-4
3-4 Setting Output Specifications

3-4-1 Control Period
• Set the output period (control period). Though a shorter period provides
better control performance, we recommend setting the control period to
20 seconds or more when using a relay output for heater control (to
increase the effective life of the relay). If necessary, readjust the control
period according to the results of trial operation with the control period
parameters set to their defaults.
• Use host communications or the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit to set
the “heating control period” and “cooling control period” parameters.
Default is 2 s.
• The “cooling control period” parameter is used only in heating and cooling
control.
• Set the control periods for channels 1 and 2 separately.
3-4-2 Direct (Cooling)/Reverse (Heating) Operation

• Direct operation refers to control where the manipulated variable (MV) is
increased for an increase in the process value (e.g.,cooling). Alternatively,
reverse operation refers to control where the manipulated variable (MV) is
decreased for an increase in the process value (e.g., heating).
MV MV
100% 100%
0% 0%
Low temperature Set value High temperature Low temperature Set value High temperature
Direct operation Reverse operation
• For example, when the process value (temperature) is lower than the set
point (temperature) in a heating control system, the manipulated variable
(MV) increases by the difference between the process value and the set
value.
Reverse operation is thus used in a heating control system and direct
operation is used in a cooling control system.
• Use host communications or the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit to set
“Direct/reverse operation” to “0: Reverse” or “1: Direct.” Default is for
reverse operation (heating).
• Set the direct/reverse operation for channels 1 and 2 separately.
25
Setting Output Specifications Section 3-4
3-4-3 Output Allocations

• The E5ZN has four outputs. The following tables shows the default func-
tions allocated to each output terminal.
Name Terminal Setting
No.
OUT1 (control output 7, 8 Heating control output for ch 1
1)
OUT2 (control output 1, 2 Heating control output for ch 2
2)
SUB1 (auxiliary out- 13, 15 Alarm 1 and heater burnout alarm OR output for
put 1) ch 1
SUB2 (auxiliary out- 14, 15 Alarm 1 and heater burnout alarm OR output for
put 2) ch 2
• The functions allocated to these four outputs can be changed by chang-

ing the output allocation settings. Refer to the following table for the func-
tions that can be allocated to the outputs.
The same functions can be allocated to different outputs.
Set value Function
0 Heating control output for ch 1
1 Cooling control output for ch 1
2 Alarm 1 and heater burnout alarm OR output for
ch 1
3 Alarm 2 output for ch 1
4 Alarm 3 output ch 1
5 Heating control output for ch 2
6 Cooling control output for ch 2
7 Alarm 1 and heater burnout alarm OR output for
ch 2
• When “Heating control output for ch 1” has been set for an output, ch 1
performs heating/cooling control. When “Cooling control output for ch 2”
has been allocated to the output, ch 2 performs heating/cooling control.
Allocating Alarm 2 Use host communications or the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit to set 3 as
Output for ch 1 to the auxiliary output 2 allocation.

Setting the SP Section 3-5
3-5 Setting the SP

3-5-1 Changing the SP
Use host communications or the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit to set the SP.
Default is 0°C.
In this example, the set point will be changed from 0°C to 200°C.
• Use host communications to set the “SP” parameter to “000000C8H
(200°C).”
• To use the Setting Display Unit to change the SP, select the channel to be
changed and use the Up and Down Keys to set the SP to 200°C.
• To start control, an operation start (RUN) must be specified after changing
the SP. Refer to 3-10 Starting and Stopping Control for details.
27
Executing ON/OFF Control Section 3-6
3-6 Executing ON/OFF Control

In ON/OFF control, the control output turns OFF when the process value
(temperature) reaches the preset set point. When the control output turns
OFF, the temperature begins to fall and the control output turns ON again.
This operation is repeated between certain points. How much the temperature
must fall in relation to the SP before control output turns ON again is deter-
mined by the “heating hysteresis” parameter. Also, whether the manipulated
variable (MV) must be increased or decreased in response in an increase or
decrease in the process value is determined by the “direct/reverse operation”
parameter.
3-6-1 ON/OFF Control

Either 2-PID control or ON/OFF control can be set using the “PID/OnOff”
parameter. When this parameter is set to “PID,” 2-PID control is used, and
when set to “OnOff,” ON/OFF control is used. Default is “PID.”
Hysteresis • In ON/OFF control, hysteresis is provided in the program when switching

between ON and OFF to stabilize operation. The hysteresis width pro-
vided during ON/OFF control is simply referred to as “hysteresis.” Heating
control output and cooling control output functions are set in the “heating
hysteresis” and “cooling hysteresis” parameters.
• In standard heating or cooling control, the hysteresis can only be set at
the “heating hysteresis” parameter.

Determining PID Constants: Autotuning and Manual Setup Section 3-7
3-7 Determining PID Constants: Autotuning and Manual Setup

3-7-1 Autotuning
• When executing autotuning, the optimum PID constants for the set point
during program execution are automatically set by changing the manipu-
lated variable (MV) to calculate the characteristics of the control target.
This is called the limit cycle method.
• Autotuning cannot be executed while stopped or during manual mode or
ON/OFF control.
• To start autotuning, use host communications operation commands or the
E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit and set “AT execute/stop” to “execute.”
• To stop autotuning, use host communications operation commands or the
E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit and set “AT execute/stop” to “stop.”
• During execution of autotuning, only “communications writing,” “RUN/
STOP,” “AT execute/stop,” and “auto/manual” parameters can be
changed. No other settings can be changed.
• If “RUN/STOP” is set to “STOP” during execution of autotuning, autotun-
ing and operation will stop. Autotuning will not start again even if “RUN/
STOP” is set to “RUN” again.
30
Determining PID Constants: Autotuning and Manual Setup Section 3-7
3-7-2 Manual Setup

To set PID parameters manually, use host communications or the E5ZN-SDL
Setting Display Unit and set values for the “proportional band” (P), “integrated
time” (I) and “derivative time” (D) parameters.
Note 1. When control characteristics are already known, the PID parameters can be set di-
rectly to adjust control. PID parameters are set in the “proportional band” (P), “in-
tegrated time” (I), and “derivative time” (D) parameters.
2. When PID constants I (integral time) and D (derivative time) are set to 0, control is
executed according to proportional operation. The default set point becomes the
center value of the proportional band.
When P (Proportional
Band) Is Changed When P is The curve rises gradually, and

limit.” Set the alarms separately for each channel.
3-8-2 Alarm Values

Alarm values are indicated by “X” in the table in the above section. When the
upper and lower limits are set independently, “H” is displayed for upper limit
values, and “L” is displayed for lower limit values.
When upper and lower limit, upper and lower limit range, or upper and lower
limit alarm with standby sequence have been selected as the alarm type, set
the alarm upper limit and alarm lower limit parameters separately.
When other alarm types have been selected, set the alarm value parameter.
The upper and lower limits cannot be set independently for alarm 3.

Using Heater Burnout Alarm (HBA) Section 3-9
3-9 Using Heater Burnout Alarm (HBA)

3-9-1 HBA Detection
To CT terminal
CT
Heater lead
Heater burnout detection works as follows:

1,2,3... 1. Pass the heater lead through the current transformer (CT) hole. For spec-
ifications, models, and external dimensions of current transformers that
can be used on this Controller, refer to Current Transformer (CT) in Appen-
dix A.
2. When current flows through the lead, the current transformer generates AC
current proportional to the current value. The E5ZN measures this AC cur-
rent to calculate the current flowing to the heater.
3. If the heater is burned out, the current measured at the current transformer
will decrease. If this value becomes larger than the value set as the heater
burnout set value, the output is turned ON to indicate a heater burnout
alarm.
• Set the heater burnout detection value in the “heater burnout detection”
parameter. To monitor the current value of the current transformer, use
the “heater current monitor” parameter.
• When you are not using the HBA function, set the “heater burnout”
parameter to “0: OFF.”
• Make separate heater burnout settings for ch1 and ch2.
3-9-2 Operating Conditions

• Be sure to connect the CT to the E5ZN, and pass the heater lead through
the CT hole.
• Turn ON the heater at the same time as or before turning the E5ZN. If the
heater is turned ON after turning the E5ZN, the heater burnout alarm will
activate.
• Control is continued even if the heater burnout alarm is turned ON. (That
is, the E5ZN attempts to control heaters for which the heater burnout
alarm has not occurred.)
• Heater burnout detection is performed when the control output is continu-
ously ON for 190 ms or more.
• The rated current value may sometimes differ slightly from the actual cur-
rent flowing to the heater. Check the current value in an actual operating
state in the “heater current monitor” parameter.
• If there is little difference between the current in a normal state and the
current in the burnout state, detection may be unstable. On a heater with
a current 10.0 A or less, maintain a difference of 1.0 A or more. On a
heater with a current 10.0 A or more, maintain a difference of 2.5 A or
more.
• The HBA function cannot be used when the heater is controlled by a
phase control system or cycle control system. Also, 3-phase heaters can-
not be used.
35
Using Heater Burnout Alarm (HBA) Section 3-9
Note To detect heater burnout for a 3-phase heater, use the K2CU-F@@A-@GS (with gate
input terminal). For details, see the data sheet.
3-9-3 Calculating the Detection Current Value

• Calculate the set value by the following equation:
(Normal current + Current at heater burnout)
Set value =
2
• To set the value of the heater burnout when two or more heaters are con-
nected through the CT, use the current value of the smallest heater con-
nected. If all the heaters have the same current value, use the current
value when one of the heaters burns out.
• Make sure that the following conditions are satisfied:
Heater of current 10.0 A or less:
Normal current -Current at heater burnout ³ 1 A
(When the resultant current is less than 1 A, detection is unstable.)
Heater of current 10.0 A or more:
Normal current -
Current at heater burnout ³ 2.5 A
(When the resultant current is less than 2.5 A, detection is unstable.)
• The setting range is 0.1 to 49.9 A. Heater burnout is not detected if the set
value is 0.0 or 50.0. If the set value is 0.0, the heater burnout alarm is
turned OFF, and if the set value is 50.0, the heater burnout alarm is turned
ON.
• Set the total current value at normal heater operation to 50 A or less.

Starting and Stopping Control Section 3-10
3-10 Starting and Stopping Control

3-10-1 Starting Control (RUN)/Stopping Control (STOP)
Set the RUN/STOP operation command to RUN to start E5ZN control. To stop
control, set the RUN/STOP operation command to STOP.
There are three ways to set the RUN/STOP operation command.
1,2,3... 1. Using host communications.
2. Using the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit.
3. Using an external contact for an event input.
Operation after Turning • Set the operation status after the power supply for the E5ZN has been
ON the Power Supply turned ON. Choose one of the following two statuses.
Set value Operation
Stop Control will always stop when the power supply is turned ON.
Continue Returns control to the status for the last time the power supply
was turned OFF.
• The following table gives additional information for each of the operation
settings.
Operation after Additional information
power turned ON
Stop When the power is turned ON, the RUN/STOP setting will
always be set to STOP and the E5ZN will start when the com-
mand is changed to RUN.
Continue 1. If the E5ZN was in manual mode the last time the power was
turned OFF, it will be in manual mode when the power is
turned ON and the manual manipulated variable will be 0%.
2. When the setting for operation after the power is turned ON
is changed from “stop” to “continue,” the “RUN/STOP” oper-
ation command will be set to “STOP.” This setting change will
always be saved to internal non-volatile memory even if the
E5ZN is in RAM backup mode.
3. When the E5ZN is used in RAM write mode, change the
“RUN/STOP” operation command from the host communi-
cations and then be sure to execute the RAM DATA SAVE
operation command. If the power is turned OFF before the
RAM DATA SAVE operation command is executed, the op-
eration status will not be continued.
• Default is stop.
• This parameter setting is used by both channels.
37
Operating Precautions Section 3-11
3-11 Operating Precautions

1,2,3... 1. About four seconds is required for outputs to turn ON after the power is
turned ON. Take this into consideration when the Temperature Controller
is incorporated into a sequence circuit.
2. The Temperature Controller may be subject to the influence of radio inter-
ference if used near a radio, TV, or wireless equipment.

Shifting Input Values Section 4-1
4-1 Shifting Input Values

4-1-1 Shifting Input
The input shift type matched to the sensor currently selected in the “input
type” parameter is displayed.
• A 2-point shift is used only for infrared temperature sensors.
• With a 1-point shift, only the value set for the “Temperature input shift”
parameter is applied to the entire temperature input range. For example, if
the input shift value is set to 1.2°C and the process value is 200°C, the
process value will be treated as 201.2°C after the input shift has been
applied.

• The input temperature range of infrared temperature sensors can be

shifted by setting different shift values for the upper and lower ends of the
sensor range. Setting different shift values means that the slop of the line
will change. For example, if the upper limit value is set to “2°C” and the
lower limit value is set to “1°C,” the sensor range is shifted by 1.5°C at a
50% input.
• Set the upper limit value in the “upper limit temperature input shift value”
parameter and the lower limit value in the “lower limit temperature input
shift value” parameter.
• Default for the upper and lower limit temperature input shift values are 0
for both ch1 and ch2.
40
4-1-2 Calculating Input Shift Values for Non-contact Sensors

When a ES1A Infrared Temperature Sensor is connected to the E5ZN, an off-
set of several degrees to several tens of degrees can occur due to internal
impedance. Furthermore, if the rate of heat radiation of the control target is
not 0.9, errors may occur.
For this reason, offset the readout value using a 1-point or 2-point shift as
described in this section. This offset occurs because a bias current for detect-
ing Controller sensor error flows to the output impedance of the non-contact
temperature sensor. A 2-point shift can be performed only on infrared temper-
ature sensors, and cannot be set for other input types.
Preparations
1,2,3... 1. Set the temperature range matching the input specifications of the non-
contact temperature sensor.
2. Prepare a thermometer capable of measuring the temperature of the con-
trol target as shown in Figure 1 so that 1-point shift or 2-point shift can be
performed.

1,2,3... 1. In the configuration shown in Figure 1, bring the set point to near the value
at which the temperature of the control target is to be controlled. Let's as-
sume that the control target temperature (C) and the control target temper-
ature (B) are the same.
2. Check the control target temperature (B) and the Controller readout (A).
Take the following value as the input shift value, and set the same numer-
ical values for both the lower limit temperature input shift value and the up-
per limit temperature input shift value.

ture input shift value is correct.

Two-point Shift Use a 2-point input shift if you want to increase the accuracy of the readout
values across the range of the sensor.
1,2,3... 1. The Controller readout will be shifted at two points, near room temperature
and near the value at which the temperature of the control target is to be
controlled. For this reason, bring the control target temperature to near
room temperature and to near the set point, and check the control target
temperature (B) and Controller readout (A) at both points.
2. Using equations 1 and 2, calculate the upper and lower limit temperature
input shift values from values obtained in step 1.

3. After you have set the calculated values for the lower limit temperature in-

Controller readout (A) and control target temperature (B) at both points.

4. Although the input shift was performed at two points, close to room tem-
perature (ambient temperature) and near to the set point, select points
close to each end of the sensor range to improve accuracy across the full
range of sensor measurement.
Example of 2-point In this example, we use the ES1A K 160 to 260°C specification, where the
Temperature Input Shift input temperature setting range is 0 to 260°C.
In equations 1 and 2, the set temperature lower limit YL is 0°C and the set
temperature upper limit YH is 260°C. Check the temperature of the control tar-
get.
We will assume that when the room temperature X1 is 25°C, the readout on
the Controller Y1 is 40°C, and when the temperature near the set point X2 is
110°C, the readout on the Controller Y2 is 105°C.

Alarm Hysteresis Section 4-2
4-2 Alarm Hysteresis

• The hysteresis of alarm outputs when alarms are switched ON and OFF
can be set as follows:
Upper limit Lower limit
alarm alarm
Alarm hysteresis Alarm hysteresis
ON ON
OFF OFF
Alarm value Alarm value
• Alarm hysteresis is set independently for each alarm in the “alarm hyster-
esis 1” to “alarm hysteresis 3” parameters.
• Default is 0.2 for both ch1 and ch2.
4-2-1 Standby Sequence

• The standby sequence allows alarm outputs to be temporarily disabled
until the temperature leaves the alarm range (i.e., until an alarm condition
does not exist). Once the alarm range has been left, the alarm output will
then operate whenever the alarm range is entered.
• For example, in a standard heating application, if you use the standard
“low alarm,” the alarm output would be turned ON when the Controller is
turned ON. However, if the standby sequence is used, the alarm output is
disabled during the warmup period until the temperature goes above the
alarm set point. The alarm becomes active after the low alarm set point
has been exceeded and the output is turned ON if the temperature falls
below the alarm set point.
Restart The standby sequence is ended when an alarm is output. It is, however,
restarted (reset) later by the conditions specified in the “standby sequence
restart” parameter.
4-2-2 Alarm Latch

• The alarm latch function holds the alarm output ON once it has been
turned ON regardless of the temperature.
• The alarm latch can be canceled by turning OFF the power.
• Default is “0: OFF.”
44
Alarm Hysteresis Section 4-2
4-2-3 Close for Alarm/Open for Alarm

• When the E5ZN is set to “close for alarm,” the status of the alarm output
function is normally open. When set to “open for alarm,” the status of the
alarm output standby is normally closed.
• The close for alarm/open for alarm status can be set independently for
each alarm.
• The close for alarm/open for alarm settings are set in the “Alarm 1 to 3
open for alarm” parameters.
• Default is “0: Close for alarm.”
• When “alarm 1 open for alarm” is set, the heater burnout alarm and input
error outputs are both open for alarm.

Setting Scaling Upper and Lower Limits (Analog Input) Section 4-3
4-3 Setting Scaling Upper and Lower Limits (Analog Input)

4-3-1 Analog Input
• An analog voltage input can be scaled matched to the control application.
• Scaling is set in the “scaling upper limit,” “scaling lower limit,” and “deci-
mal point” parameters. These parameters cannot be used when a tem-
perature input is selected.
• The “scaling upper limit” parameter sets the physical quantity to be
expressed by the upper limit value of input, and the “scaling lower limit”
parameter sets the physical quantity to be expressed by the lower limit
value of input. The “decimal point” parameter specifies the number of dig-
its past the decimal point.
• The following figure shows a scaling example for a input of 0 to 50 mVDC
for humidity. After scaling, the humidity(%) can be directly read.

Executing Heating and Cooling Control Section 4-4
4-4 Executing Heating and Cooling Control

4-4-1 Heating and Cooling Control
Heating and cooling control operates when a cooling control output has been
allocated to one of the outputs. For example, to set heating and cooling con-
trol for ch1, allocate “cooling control output for ch1” to one of the outputs.
• When heating and cooling control is selected, the “dead band” and “cool-
ing coefficient” parameters can be used.
• Refer to 3-4 Setting Output Specifications for allocation methods for heat-
ing and cooling control.
• The default allocation is “heating control output.”
Dead Band The dead band is set with the set point as its center. The dead band width is
set in the “dead band” parameter in the adjustment level. Setting a negative
value produces an overlap band.
Dead band: Overlap band:
Dead band width = positive Output Dead band width = negative

Default is “0.0% EU.”
Cooling Coefficient If the heating and cooling characteristics of the control target differ enough to
prevent satisfactory control characteristics from being obtained using the
same PID constants, control between the heating and cooling sides can be
balanced by adjusting the proportional band (P) at the cooling side control
output using the cooling coefficient. In heating and cooling control, P at the
heating or cooling control output sides is calculated using the following for-
mula: Heating side P = P
Cooling side P = Heating side P ´ Cooling coefficient
The cooling coefficient is applied to heating side P to obtain cooling side out-
put control whose characteristics (i.e., the cooling side P) differ from those on
the heating side control output.

Using the Event Input Section 4-5
4-5 Using the Event Input

4-5-1 Setting the Event Input
The event input, which uses an external contact input, is set using the “No. of
multi-SP uses” and “event input assignment” settings.
The multi-SP function is allocated for event input by setting the “No. of multi-
SP uses” parameter. The RUN/STOP control function is set using the “event
input allocation” parameter.
When the event input is not used as a multi-SP function, the multi-SP function
can be used via host communications or the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit
by setting the “multi-SP use” parameter.
The following table shows the relationship between the three settings.
Settings Function allocated Changing multi-SP via host
Number of Event input Multi-SP use to event input communications or Setting

0 None ON None Possible
OFF Not possible
RUN/STOP ON RUN/STOP Possible
OFF Not possible
1 None ON Multi-SP from event Not possible
OFF input
RUN/STOP ON

The shaded areas indicate the default values for the “No. of multi-SP uses,”
“event input allocation,” and “multi-SP use” parameters.
The three communications parameters given in the left columns of the above
table are given priority in the following order: “No. of multi-SP uses,” “event
input allocation,” and “multi-SP use.”
4-5-2 Using Control Start (RUN)/Control Stop (STOP)

When the “No. of Multi-SP uses” parameter is set to 0 and the event input allo-
cation is set to “RUN/STOP,” the RUN/STOP function can be controlled using
the event input. The following table shows the relationship between event
input contact status and control status.
Event input contact Control status
ON (closed) RUN
OFF (open) STOP
4-5-3 Using the Multi-SP

The multi-SP function is used to switch between two set points. Different set
points are set in advance for set point 0 and set point 1 and the event input
contact signals or E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit is used to switch them.
Using the Event Input The set points listed in the following table can be selected by turning ON and
OFF the event input.
Event input contact Set point
OFF (open) Set point 0
ON (short) Set point 1
Note 1. Switch event inputs during communications with the host computer.
ON/OFF is detected for inputs of 50 ms or more.
2. Set points for ch1 and ch2 are both switched using event input.
48
Using the Event Input Section 4-5
Using Communications The set point can be selected using the communications parameters shown in
the following table.
Multi-SP Set point
0 Set point 0
1 Set point 1
Note The set point can be switched independently for ch 1 and ch2.
Using Key Operations The set point can be selected using the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit.

Setting the SP Upper and Lower Limit Range Section 4-6
4-6 Setting the SP Upper and Lower Limit Range

4-6-1 Set Point Limits
The upper and lower set point limits can be set within the input temperature
setting range.
Once the input set point limit is set, the set point is automatically returned to
the upper or lower set point limit if it goes outside the set point limit range.
For example, If the set point upper limit is changed to 150°C when the set
point is 200°C, the set point upper limit was 300°C, and the set point lower
limit is 100°C, the set point will have gone outside the existing set point limit
range of 100°C to 150°C. In this situation the set point will be changed to
150°C (i.e., the new upper limit).
If the input type or temperature unit is changed, the set point upper and lower
limits will be automatically reset to the upper and lower limits of the input tem-
perature setting range.
Set the set point limit separately for ch1 and ch2.

SP Ramp Function: Limiting SP Change Rate Section 4-7
4-7 SP Ramp Function: Limiting SP Change Rate

4-7-1 SP Ramp
The SP ramp function controls the rate of change of the set point. If a change
larger than the rate of change is specified when the SP ramp function has
been enable, changes in the set point will be limited as shown below. Thus,
when changes are made to the set point with the SP ramp function enabled,
control is performed according to the rate of change rather than the target
value.
SP

The change rate during SP ramp is specified in the “SP ramp set value”
parameter. The “SP ramp set value” default is 0, i.e., the SP ramp function is
disabled.
The ramp set point can be monitored in the “Set point during SP ramp”
parameter.
Operation at Start When the power is turned ON, operation is performed with the process value
treated as the set point before the change was made.
The direction of the SP ramp changes according to the relationship between
the process value and the set point, as shown in the following diagram.

Key Protection Section 4-8
4-8 Key Protection

4-8-1 Key Protect Function
The protect function limits the settings that can be changed to prevent inad-
vertently changing settings.
There are three protect mechanisms: “Communications writing” prohibits set-
ting changes from host communications, while “operation/adjustment protec-
tion” and “initial setting/communications protection” limit settings from the
E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit.
Communications If the ‘communications writing” parameter is set to “0: Prohibited (off),”

Writing changes to parameters other than “communications writing” are prohibited
from host communications.
Default is “1: Not prohibited (on).”

Manual Mode Section 4-9
4-9 Manual Mode

4-9-1 Auto/Manual
• If the “auto/manual” operation command is used by host communications
to set “01: manual (ch1)” or “11: manual (ch2),” the E5ZN will operate in
manual mode.
• If ON/OFF control is selected, operation cannot be switched to manual
mode. Always switch to PID control before selecting manual mode.
If manual mode has been selected and then operation is switched to ON/
OFF control, the mode will automatically be changed to automatic mode.
• In manual mode, the standard control functions are stopped and the val-
ues set in the manual manipulated variable will be output.
• Make separate settings for ch1 and ch2 for auto/manual switching.
• To switch from manual to automatic mode, use the “auto/manual” opera-
tion command to set “00: auto (ch1)” and “10: auto (ch2).”
• Switching between automatic and manual modes and manual manipu-
lated variable settings cannot be made from the E5ZN-SDL Setting Dis-
play Unit.
• To check whether the E5ZN is in automatic or manual mode, use host
communications to read the “status” parameter.
• Even if the “operation after power turned ON” setting is on “continue”
(continue operation status before power OFF), the manual manipulated
variable before the power was turned OFF will not be saved. It will always
change to 0%.

Reading Temperatures for Multiple E5ZN Units Section 4-10
4-10 Reading Temperatures for Multiple E5ZN Units

If the present temperature was read from multiple Temperature Controllers
using host communications, there are time differences in the process temper-
atures read from each Temperature Controller, making it difficult to obtain con-
current data.
The PV hold function can be used with the E5ZN to ensure that the data is
concurrent to within 500 ms.
To read present temperatures from all
Temperature Controllers, the present value is
read in order from Unit No. 1 to Unit No. 31. Time
passes between the execution of the first process
Host (reading from Unit No. 0) until the execution of the
computer thirty-second process (reading from Unit. No. 31.)
For this reason, there is a time difference

affecting the temperatures obtained from
…… Units 0 and 31.
Unit No. 0 Unit No. 31
4-10-1 PV Hold
• The PV hold function temporarily stores the present temperature for that
moment as the PV hold value, when the “PV hold” operation command
sent by host communications is received.
Host
computer
(1) “PV hold” is executed from the host computer.
(3) “PV hold (2) The present temperature for each E5ZN Unit
value” read. from Units No. 0 to 15 is written simultaneously to
PV hold values.
(3) The PV hold values are read in order, starting
with Unit. No. 0.
(1) “PV hold”

executed. Unit No. Unit No.
0 15
(2) The present
temperature is held
• When using multiple E5ZN Units, use host communications to execute

the “PV hold” operation command simultaneously and then read the “PV
hold value” for each E5ZN. This enables highly concurrent temperature
logging.
• PV hold values are overwritten every time the “PV hold” operation com-
mand is executed. Once the PV hold values have been read for the chan-
nel that requires highly simultaneous reading of present temperatures,
execute the next “PV hold” operation command.
• The “PV hold” operation command cannot be executed and the “PV hold
value” cannot be read from the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit.
• When the power is turned OFF, the PV hold values change to 0.
56
Remote PV Mode Section 4-11
4-11 Remote PV Mode

Remote PV mode forces PID equation output using the input value from the
external sensor with communications functions as the PV of the E5ZN,
instead of using normal thermocouple or platinum resistance thermometer
sensor input.
This function is useful when using a remote external sensor with communica-
tions functions.
4-11-1 Using Remote PV Mode

1,2,3... 1. Connect the sensor input according to the following specifications.
• For TC, Infrared Temperature Sensors, or Analog Input
Short between terminal numbers 5 and 6 and 11 and 12.
• For Pt
Connect a resistance of 100 to 125 W between terminal numbers 4 and 5
and 10 and 11.
• Short between terminal numbers 5 and 6 and 11 and 12.
2. Set the cycle for communications data sent from the external sensor to “re-
mote PV communications wait time.” This setting affects both channels.
If the refresh cycle for data from the external sensor is longer than the “re-
mote PV communications wait time,” the E5ZN will determine that the ex-
ternal sensor has been disconnected, and an input error will occur.
3. To switch to remote PV mode, turn ON the “remote PV mode” parameter.
This parameter setting is used for both channels.
4. The PV from the external sensor is written to the remote PV.
5. To switch from remote PV mode to normal mode, turn OFF the “remote PV
mode” parameter.
Default Settings
The default settings are shown below.
• Remote PV mode: OFF (normal mode)
• Remote PV communications wait time: 2,000 ms

Communication Protocols Section 5-1
5-1 Communication Protocols

5-1-1 CompoWay/F Communication Protocol
CompoWay/F is a standard OMRON communications protocol for general-
purpose serial communications. It uses a standard frame format as well as
FINS commands that have been proven in data exchange between OMRON's
Programmable Controllers (PCs). The CompoWay/F format facilitates serial
communications between components or a PC and components.
FINS (Factory Interface Network Service)
FINS is a protocol for message communications between Controllers in
OMRON FA networks.
Note The program for communications is created on the host PC and E5ZN's parameters
are monitored or set from the host PC. In this manual, descriptions of communications
are given from the standpoint of the host PC.
5-1-2 Communications Specification

Transmission line connection: Multipoint
Communications method: RS-485 (Two-wire, half-duplex)
Synchronization method: Start-stop synchronization
Baud rate: 4.8 k, 9.6 k, 19.2 k, or 38.4 k bit/s
Communications code: ASCII
Word length: 7 or 8 bits
Stop bit length: 1 or 2 bits
Parity check: Vertical parity - None, Odd, or Even
BCC (block check character)
Start-stop synchronization data composition
Flow control: None
Interface: RS-485
Retry function: None
Note Default settings are underlined.
5-1-3 Communications Procedure

Communications between the Temperature Controller and the host PC are
implemented on a frame-by-frame basis.
When the host PC sends a command frame to the Temperature Controller, the
Temperature Controller returns to the host PC a response frame that corre-
sponds to the command frame.
Command and response frames are transmitted as follows:
Host PC
Com e
Co m e
fram
fram
framsponse
framsponse
m
m
and
and
e
Re
Re
Temperature Controller
Allow a minimum wait time of 5 ms from when the host PC receives the re-
sponse from the Temperature Controller until the host sends the next com-
mand.
60
Data Format Structure Section 5-2
5-2 Data Format Structure

Communications conforming to the CompoWay/F serial communications pro-
tocol involve transmission of blocks of data called frames. Those sent from
the host PC are command frames and those sent from the Temperature Con-
troller are response frames. The structure of these frames is shown below.
In the following frame description, the suffix H added to a numeric value, as in
02H, means the value is a hexadecimal number. And quotation marks around
an alphanumeric value, as in “00,” mean that the value is an ASCII character
set. The number underneath each delimiter in a frame indicates the number of
bytes.

Node No. Node ID specifying the destination of a command frame. Set this
No. to the unit number of the Temperature Controller.
If you want to broadcast a command, set the node number to
“XX.” No response is given from the Temperature Controllers for
broadcast commands.
Sub-address Not used for E5ZN. Always set the sub-address to “00.”
SID (Service ID) Not used for E5ZN. Always set the SID to “0.”

Å: XOR (exclusive OR) operation
Note How to Determine the BCC:

The BCC is determined by XOR operation on a byte-by-byte basis of the values within
the range from the node number field to the ETX field. The result (36H in the example
shown above) is placed in the BCC field.

Variable Area Section 5-4
5-4 Variable Area

The section of memory in the Temperature Controller that holds the data to be
transmitted via communications is called the variable area. The variable area
is to read current process values or read/write parameter settings.
The variable area is not used for operation commands or for reading Control-
ler attributes.

Data reading/writing
To specify the position of a variable in the variable area, use the variable type
and address.

Variable type C0
C1
C3
C5
C7
Variable
The address is a 4-digit hexadecimal code. Each variable contains an eight-

digit value in hexadecimal. Negative values are expressed as the two's com-
plement. When the current value of a variable is read as 105.0 on the main
indicator of the Temperature Controller, for example, its hexadecimal notation
is read in the form 0000041AH (the decimal point is ignored; 105.0 ® 1050 ®
0000041AH).
The variable area is mapped as shown below. The variable type is converted
to a 2-byte ASCII code and loaded to the frame. Available variable types are
shown in the following map.

Setting Areas Section 5-8
5-8 Setting Areas

E5ZN Temperature Controllers can be set to either setting area 0 or setting
area 1.
Control operation is executed in setting area 0. In this state, you can perform
operations that are permitted only during control or those that cause no prob-
lems even if control is in progress. These operations include reading process
values, writing set points, and change RUN/STOP status.
Setting area 0, however, prohibits operations affect control, including writing
data at the initial setting level. (Reading setting data is always allowed.)
In setting area 1, control operation is stopped. In this state, you can perform
operations that are not allowed in setting area 0. These operations include
writing data at the initial setting level.
At power-ON, the Temperature Controller is set in setting area 0. To move to
setting area 1, use the “move-to-setting area 1” command. To return to setting
area 0, turn the power OFF and ON again, or use the “software reset” com-
mand.

This command selects backup mode and RAM write mode.

Default is RAM write mode.
Write mode Description
Backup mode When operation/adjustment level setting data write has been
performed via communications, the data is written to internal
non-volatile memory. Refer to 6-3 Setup Level Configuration
and Front Panel Keys for information on operation/adjustment
level.
RAM write mode When operation/adjustment level setting data write has been
performed via communications, the data is not written to inter-
nal non-volatile memory. However, if the data is changed using
the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit key operations, it is written
to internal non-volatile memory. Refer to 6-3 Setup Level Con-
figuration and Front Panel Keys for information on operation/
adjustment level.
When switching from RAM write mode to backup mode, the operation/adjust-
ment level setting data is written to internal non-volatile memory. Refer to 6-3
Setup Level Configuration and Front Panel Keys for information on operation/
adjustment level.

• The RS-485 connection can be either one-to-one to one-to-N. Up to 16

units can be connected in one-to-N systems
• Keep the total cable length to 500m maximum.
• Attach a terminator to both ends of the transmission path.
Note Communications with the E5ZN-SDL will be cut if the E5ZN-2 connection to the E5ZN-
SCT24S-500 is broken
The E5ZN Temperature Controller and the E5ZN-SDL are connected by serial
communications. When connecting multiple E5ZN Temperature Controllers,
set a different unit number for each one.
The E5ZN-SDL recognizes the E5ZN Temperature Controllers by the unit
numbers. Use the UNIT Key on the E5ZN-SDL to set the unit number of the
E5ZN Temperature Controller to be set and displayed on the E5ZN-SDL.
The E5ZN-2 Temperature Controller has two channel input channels.
Use the CH Key to set the E5ZN-SDL channel number to be displayed.

5. UNIT/CH display
Displays the E5ZN Temperature Indicator unit number and channel num-
ber that will be set and displayed on the E5ZN-SDL.
When facing the front panel, the unit number (0 to F) is displayed on the
left and the channel number (1 to 2, U) is displayed on the right.
When the channel number is “U,” the setting and display is used by both
channels.
6-2-3 Using the Keys
Level Key Press this key to select the setting levels.
Mode Key Press this key to select parameters within each level.
Up Key Each press of this key increments values displayed on the No. 2 display. Hold-
ing down this key continuously increments values.
Alternatively, the display moves to the next setting item.
Down Key Each press of this key decrements values displayed on the No. 2 display.
Holding down this key continuously decrements values.
Alternatively, the display moves back one setting item.
Level Key + Mode Key This key combination sets the E5ZN to the “protect level.” For details on the
protect level, refer to 6-3 Setup Level Configuration and Front Panel Keys.
UNIT Key Each press of this key increments the unit number.
Select the E5ZN Temperature Controller unit number to set for the E5ZN-SDL.
CH Key Each press of this key changes the channel number.

The channel number cannot be selected when the channel number display for
the E5ZN Temperature Controller is “U” because the setting is used by both
channels.
COPY Key Press this key to read all E5ZN Temperature Controller set values to the
E5ZN-SDL or to write all set values to the E5ZN from the E5ZN-SDL.
6-2-4 Main Functions
Display The process value and set values for the E5ZN Temperature Controller as
well as other data and control outputs, auxiliary outputs, and other status
information can be displayed.
Settings The parameters and control operations for the E5ZN Temperature Controller
can be changed.
Copy All settings for the E5ZN Temperature Controller can be read and saved to the
E5ZN-SDL. Also, all the settings for the E5ZN Temperature Controller that
were saved in the E5ZN-SDL can be written to the E5ZN Temperature Con-
troller.

OK: Indicates items that can be set.

Note To move to the advanced function setting level, set the “initial setting/communications
protection” parameter in the “protect level” to “0.”
Of these levels in normal mode, the initial setting level, communications set-
ting level, and advanced function setting level can be used only when control
has stopped. Controller outputs are stopped when any of these four levels are
selected.
It is possible to enter copy mode while Controller outputs are being made, but
copy operations (e.g., upload, download) can by used only when control has
stopped.
102
Setup Level Configuration and Front Panel Keys Section 6-3
Protect Level To move the mode to this level, simultaneously press the Level and Mode
Keys for at least three seconds in the operation level or adjustment level. This
level is for preventing unwanted or accidental modification of parameters. Pro-
tected levels will not be displayed, and so the parameters in that level cannot
be modified.
Operation Level • This level is initially displayed when you turn ON the power to the E5ZN.
You can move to the protect level, initial setting level, and adjustment
level from this level.
• During operation, the process value, set point, and manipulated variable
can be monitored, and the set point, alarm value and upper and lower
limit alarms can be monitored and modified.
Adjustment Level • To move the mode to this level, press the Level Key for less than one sec-
ond.
• This level is for entering set values and offset values for control. This level
contains parameters for setting the autotuning, communications writing
enable/disable, hysteresis, multi-SP, input shift values, heater burnout
alarm (HBA) settings, PID constants, etc. You can move to the top param-
eter of the initial setting level and operation level from here.
Initial Setting Level To move the mode to this level, press the Level Key for at least three seconds
in the operation level or adjustment level. The first display flashes after one
second. This level is for specifying the input type, selecting the control
method, control period, setting direct/reverse action and alarm type. You can
move to the advanced function setting level or communications setting level
from this level. To return to the operation level, press the Level Key for at least
one second. To move to the communications setup level, press the Level Key
for less than one second.
The display will be blank “----” when you move from the initial setting level to
the operation level.
Advanced Function • To enter this level, you must enter the password “-169” in the initial setting
Setting Level level.
• You can move to the initial setting level only from this level.
• This level is for setting the MV limits, event input assignment, standby
sequence, alarm hysteresis, and other parameters.
Communications To move to this level, press the Level Key for less than one second in the initial
Setting Level setting level. When the communications settings are to used, set the commu-
nications conditions in this level. Communicating with a personal computer
(host computer) allows set points to be read and written, and manipulated
variables to be monitored.
103
Initial Setup Examples Section 6-4
6-4 Initial Setup Examples

On previous Controllers, the sensor input type, alarm type, and control period
were set on DIP switches. These hardware settings are now set using the
setup menus of the E5ZN-SDL. The Level and Mode Keys are used to switch
between setup menus, and the amount of time that you hold the keys down
determines which setup menu you move to.
Typical Usage Example

Changing parameters
: indicates that there are more parameters.
in-t Continue to press the Mode Key until the

Integral Time (i
Derivative Time (dd)
Condition: The control must be 2-PID control.
These parameters set the PID constants for control. The PID can be automat-
ically set by executing autotuning.
Function Proportional action:P refers to control in which the MV is proportional to the

deviation.
Integral action: I gives a control action that is proportional to the time inte-
gral of the control error. With proportional control, there is
normally an offset (control error). So, proportional action
is used in combination with integral action. As time
passes, this control error disappears, and the set point
comes to agree with the control temperature (process
value).
Derivative action: D gives a control action that is proportional to the time
derivative of the control error. As proportional control and
integral control correct for errors in the control result, the
control system will be late in responding to sudden
changes in temperature. Derivative action enables control
124
that is proportional to a predicted process output to cor-

rect for future error.

Troubleshooting Procedure Section 8-1
8-1 Troubleshooting Procedure

If the E5ZN has an error, refer to the following items to find the possible cause
of the error and take corrective measures.
1,2,3... 1. Indicators
Check the operating status of the E5ZN using the indicators.
If the ERROR indicator is lit, turn the E5ZZ OFF and ON. If the ERROR
indicator is not lit after the E5ZN is turned ON, it may mean that the E5ZN
is being influenced by noise. Find the source of the noise and provide ad-
equate protection against it.
2. Switch, Selectors, and Wiring
Check if the switch and selector settings of the E5ZN, the wiring of the
E5ZN and devices connected to the E5ZN are correct.
a) Power Supply
• Check that the power supply connected to the E5ZN is turned ON.
• Check whether the supply voltage at the power supply terminals is
within the allowable voltage range of the E5ZN.
b) Switch and Selectors
Check that the switch and selectors of the E5ZN are correctly set ac-
cording to the system.
c) Wiring
• Check that the terminal block wiring is correct.
• Check that the polarity of each wire connected to the E5ZN is correct.
• Check if any wire is disconnected.
• Check if a wire or cable is cut or short-circuited.
d) Communications Conditions
Check that the communications conditions of the E5ZN are compatible
with the host connected to the E5ZN.
Check the above items and remedy any problems listed above. If the error
persists after error processing, perform further checks through communi-
cations.
3. Checking through Communications
• Check the end code and error code with the response returned from
the E5ZN.
• Check the status of the E5ZN with the Status Read Command.
• Check if the functions used with the E5ZN have any operating restric-
tions.
• Check if the set data items of the communication commands used for
the E5ZN are correct.
Troubleshoot problems on the basis of the data read with the E5ZE.
4. Troubleshooting Based on Error Symptoms
If the cause of the error is still unknown after checking all the previously
mentioned items, find the cause by isolating the symptoms of the error
while referring to the tables in 8-2 Communications Errors, and correct the
problem accordingly.

Error Displays
When an error has occurred, the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit indicates the error codes.
This section describes how to check error codes on the display, and the actions you must take to remedy the
problem.
s.err Input Error

Meaning
The input value has exceeded the control range.
Note Control range
Platinum resistance thermometer, thermocouple input:
Temperature setting lower limit -20°C to temperature setting upper limit 20°C
(temperature setting lower limit -40°F to temperature setting upper limit 40°F)
ES1A input:
Same as input indication range
Analog input:
-5% to 105% of scaling range
Action
Check the wiring of inputs for mistakes in wiring, disconnections, short-circuits, and the input type.
If no abnormality is found in the wiring and input type, turn the power OFF then back ON again. If the display
remains the same, the E5ZN must be repaired. If the display is restored, then a probable cause can be electri-
cal noise affecting the control system. Check for electrical noise.
Operation at Error
After the error occurs, the error is displayed, and control output functions turn OFF.
Alarm outputs function as if the upper limit value has been exceeded.
An error message is displayed when “process value” or “PV/SP” are displayed.
<<<<,
<<<< >>>> Display range over
Meaning
Though this is not an error, this is displayed when the process value exceeds the display range when the con-
trol range is larger than the display range (-1999 to 9999).
• When less than “-1999” <<<<
• When larger than “9999” >>>>
Action
Control continues, allowing normal operation. An error message is displayed when “process value” or “PV/SP”
are displayed.
e111 Memory error

Meaning
Internal memory operation for the E5ZN-SDL Setting Display Unit is in error.
Action
First, turn the power OFF then back ON again. If the display remains the same, the E5ZN must be replaced. If
the display is restored, then a probable cause can be electrical noise affecting the control system. Check for
electrical noise.
Operation at Error
Key operations are not possible.
161
Error Displays Appendix B
ffff Current value exceeded

Meaning
This error is displayed when the heater current value exceeds 55.0A.
Action
Control continues, allowing normal operation. An error message is displayed when the heater current value
monitor is displayed.
---- Disabled Status

Meaning
This error is displayed when one of the following errors has occurred in the connection with the E5ZN.
• The connection cable is disconnected.
• The power supply to the E5ZN-SDL has been turned OFF while in copy mode.
• A memory error has occurred in the E5ZN. The control output and alarm outputs will be OFF for the E5ZN
generating the error.
Action
Units that do not show this disabled status will continue control and will operate normally. The selected Unit
and the channel status will be displayed.
